About this game
Onimusha: Warlords is set in 16th century Japan during the period of the civil war dominated by Nobunaga Oda.
You play Samanosuke Akechi, who dies during an attempt to stop the kidnapping of young princess Yuki, the sister to Yoshitatsu Saito.

However, Akechi is given another chance at life, and is handed the gauntlet of the Ogres.
With this new power Samanosuke must fight through the monster-filled halls of Inabayama Castle.
As monsters are defeated, their souls are absorbed by the gauntlet, increasing its power.
Some souls restore Samanosuke's health and magic, while others can be used to power up weapons, armor, and items.
Powering up weapons will increase their damage and the strength of their associated magic, and is also required to pass by special locks throughout the castle.
Items will need to be found in one part of the castle to unlock doors or otherwise bypass obstacles elsewhere in the castle, and sometimes the player will take control of Samanosuke's companion Kaede while Samanosuke is incapacitated in some way.
Kaede can reach some locations that are beyond Samanosuke as well as pick locks and throw kunai, but she can not absorb souls or open any lock intended for the wearer of the Ogre gauntlet.
The 2018 enhanced HD version for Windows and consoles now supports 16:9 wide screen resolution as well as the old 4:3 ratio.
Improved controls now allow players to move and fight with analog-stick precision.
About Nintendo Switch
Released in 2017, the Nintendo Switch became one of the best-selling consoles of all time thanks to its hybrid handheld/docked design. Its cartridge-based physical format (as opposed to discs) has made complete-in-box collecting popular again, with certain limited print runs and Nintendo-published exclusives already commanding a premium on the secondhand market just a few years after release.
Gamevaro tracks Onimusha: Warlords for Nintendo Switch with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Onimusha: Warlords to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NSW release dates back to 2001.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Onimusha: Warlords, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Switch titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
